Does anyone know what this plant is?

Saw it growing in Cornwall, and thought it was unusual... very tall (at least 8 - 10ft) but never seen one before!

TIA for any help anyone can give!

Compost Queen - you're a genius, and having looked at a pic on the www I have to agree!

I agree - saw some when I was in Cornwall a few years ago - stunning!
